Meditation Walks

 Leave the hustle and bustle of daily life behind, and embrace the tranquillity of nature, by taking meditation walks through the Mechelse Heide. Slow your pace, breathe deeply, and allow your senses to awaken, as you listen to the restful sound of rustling leaves and singing birds.

Yoga in Nature

 Bring your yoga mat to the Mechelse Heide, and immerse yourself in a refreshing yoga session in magnificent natural surroundings. Perform your asanas while you breathe in fresh air, and allow the energy of the surrounding flora and fauna to strengthen your body and mind. Outdoor yoga can help to release tension, calm the mind, and experience a closer connection with nature.

If you prefer supervision, contact ‘Yoga by Vita’ and ‘Elaisa Wellness’ on the edge of the Hoge Kempen National Park.

Picnic in Purple

Enjoy a relaxing picnic overlooking the purple-coloured scenery. Take a hamper full of goodies, find a quiet spot, and enjoy the serene surroundings.

 The Mechelse Heide is a paradise for bird-lovers, with an abundance of bird species making their home in this region. Bring your binoculars and discover the various different birds hiding amongst the shrubs and trees. Be amazed by their colourful feathers and song, and feel at one with the wildlife around you.

Gain Creative Inspiration

 Let the beauty of the Mechelse Heide serve as a source of creative inspiration. Bring your sketchbook, camera or easel, and let your imagination run free, as you capture the natural beauty of the purple heather.
